Trimpin: The Sound of Invention
is an amusing exploration of the sonic world of an eccentric creative genius. Artist/inventor/engineer/composer Trimpin shuns the hype and hyperbole of the commercial art world -- yet his freewheeling sculptures and outrageous musical experiments are cherished by museums all over the planet. Filmed over two years, this documentary feature follows the artist/inventor as he designs a 60-foot tower of more than 500 automatic electric guitars; builds an ensemble of huge marimbas that converts real-time earthquake data into music; and collaborates with the Kronos Quartet on an outrageous world premiere featuring toy instruments.
Trimpin: The Sound of Invention
will delight anyone interested in the mysteries, pitfalls, and sheer joy of creative experiment." NTSC format DVD, region 0. Total time: 77 minutes.
